How can we say anything other than that the Speaker of the House is acting like little more than a high school sophomore Republican Club underling?* This is not to say the man doesn't have even weaker underlings cheering him on. This tragi-comedy is made little better by a U.S. President, who unlike Harry Truman, will give nothing approaching the heat of hell, though he does at least try to give the truth.

As has been noted, the President agreed to the threat of a sequester as part of the budget deal of 2011. Yet somehow, blaming him for this is a little like blaming a kid for crying "Uncle!", when the neighborhood bully pins him to the sidewalk.
